Britain's Kindest Kid 2010
Five news and Charities Aid Foundation are in search
of Britain's Kindest Kid 2010.
Last year we recognised the amazing work that young people do to
support charities, help others and make the world a better place.
Whether that was a sponsored swim, bike ride or donating valuable
time. This year we're looking for more kind young people.
Last year’s winner Harry Moseley, lives with an inoperable brain
tumour and has raised over £10,000 for Brain Tumour UK, by
making and selling beaded bracelets.
Have you volunteered, raised money for a charity, done something
to improve the area where you live or shown real kindness by caring
for, or helping others? If you or someone you know are aged between
5 and 16, now is your chance to enter.
We are particularly interested in hearing about young people who
may not have been recognised before.
